AkchuayllyThe class will be defined by Reinbacher and Newhook.
Still not over but I don’t think our remaining pick(s) are going to move the needle all that much. Will update accordingly.
It’s certainly a draft class I don’t think anyone could have predicted. Definitely drafting for need and ignoring BPA in essentially every case. Clearly throwing darts at a board and hoping one of the goalies hit. I have high hopes for Fowler, just has to get in shape.
5th overall - David Reinbacher, D
69th overall - Jacob Fowler, G
101st overall - Florian Xhekaj, LW
110th overall - Bogdan Konyushkov, D
128th overall - Quentin Miller, G
133rd overall - Sam Harris, LW
144th overall - Yevgeni Volokhin, G
165th overall - Filip Eriksson, C
197th overall - Luke Mittelstadt, D
Reinbacher could play -- right now -- with Matheson. The two styles are quite complementary. It would be a way of molding Reinbacher as an eventual pairing partner for Hutson.No Mychkov? Sad. The rest I dont care. Happy we got Newhook.
Reinbacher + Newhook could be huge for our core. Here's hoping it works out fine
Ideally:
- Reinbacher: Top Paring D (50 point)- Newhook: top 6 C / W (65 to 70 points)- One goalie pans out and is our backup
Good draft, solid players. Don’t listen to people who are like “yeah so based on this one YouTube clip I watched after he was drafted, thinking he’s more of a #2.5 D man than a #1. Bad trade”. We got a bonafide future #1 and some interesting prospects here. It’s great, now we move.
I should add... we need faith that they also can trade away some deadwood. I mean Dvorak as got to go.This is a hard week with expectations....
no PLD
no top end offensive talent
lost 2 good pick for another project in newhook
very obscure draft....
There is much to desire from a fan perspective and you need of high level of faith that:
- No5 pick turns into a no1 Dman like Josi or Seider
- Newhook can slide into a top 6 role and be a point producers
- some of these picks are under the radar good....
Was about to bring this atrocious draft up. I loved most of our 2012 picks and look how it turned out.The 2012 draft is the happiest that I've seen this board.
